Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Introduction

Build Status npm package Coverage Status

This is a simple i18next backend to be used in the browser. It will load resources from a backend server using the fetch API.

Getting started

This backend is most useful when XMLHttpRequest is not available, such as with Service Worker contexts. It is also useful when support for older browsers is not a concern, and newer APIs are a priority. Source can be loaded via npm.

# npm package
$ npm install --save i18next-fetch-backend

Wiring up:

import i18next from 'i18next';
import Fetch from 'i18next-fetch-backend';

i18next
  .use(Fetch)
  .init(i18nextOptions);
  • As with all modules you can either pass the constructor function (class) to the i18next.use or a concrete instance.

Backend Options

{
  // path where resources get loaded from, or a function
  // returning a path:
  // function(lngs, namespaces) { return customPath; }
  // the returned path will interpolate lng, ns if provided like giving a static path
  loadPath: '/locales/{{lng}}/{{ns}}.json',

  // parse data after it has been fetched
  // in example use https://www.npmjs.com/package/json5
  // here it removes the letter a from the json (bad idea)
  parse: function(data) { return data.replace(/a/g, ''); },

  // path to post missing resources
  addPath: 'locales/add/{{lng}}/{{ns}}',

  // define how to stringify the data when adding missing resources
  stringify: JSON.stringify,

  // your backend server supports multiloading
  // /locales/resources.json?lng=de+en&ns=ns1+ns2
  allowMultiLoading: false, // set loadPath: '/locales/resources.json?lng={{lng}}&ns={{ns}}' to adapt to multiLoading

  multiSeparator: '+',

  // init option for fetch, for example
  requestOptions: {
    mode: 'cors',
    credentials: 'same-origin',
    cache: 'default',
  },

  // define a custom fetch function
  fetch: function (url, options, callback) {},
}

Options can be passed in:

preferred - by setting options.backend in i18next.init:

import i18next from 'i18next';
import Fetch from 'i18next-fetch-backend';

i18next
  .use(Fetch)
  .init({
    backend: options
  });

on construction:

  import Fetch from 'i18next-fetch-backend';
  const fetch = new Fetch(null, options);

via calling init:

  import Fetch from 'i18next-fetch-backend';
  const fetch = new Fetch();
  fetch.init(options);

Service Worker example

import i18next from 'i18next';
import Fetch from 'i18next-fetch-backend';

let t = null;

self.addEventListener('activate', (event) => {
  event.waitUntil(new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    i18next
      .use(Fetch)
      .init({
        fallbackLng: ['ja', 'en', 'zh'],
        preload: ['ja', 'en', 'zh'],
        ns: 'translation',
        defaultNS: 'translation',
        keySeparator: false, // Allow usage of dots in keys
        nsSeparator: false,
        backend: {
          loadPath: '/locales/{{lng}}/{{ns}}.json',
        },
      }, (err, _t) => {
        if (err) {
          reject(err);
          return;
        }

        t = _t;
        resolve();
      });
  }));
});
